Anyone seen plans or constructed their own stomp box (pressure pad) they can post a photo of?  Having a hard time shelling out $200 or more for some plywood a couple of rods and springs.

Built my own. It was extremely easy.

 

You know those rifle-bolt style door locks?

Cut that notch in a piece of conduit. Drop a steel rod with a spring around it inside,  and weld an old bolt to the rod, sticking out your L shaped hole at 90 degrees. Stomp on the plywood and it rotates the bolt down until the spring sends it shooting backward.
